Burgs & Bailiffs: Grimness in Process

Work on Burgs & Bailiffs continues. Typesetting is done and the articles has been sent around for what passes as peer review. It’s not peer review, but I’d rather have more negative feedback on those articles rather than publishing utter BS.

The size should be around 40 pages, depending on the final layout. The table of content at the moment looks like this:

Medieval Tournaments: The Real Melees – Rich Wilson

Settling Disputes: Ordeals and Trials – Mike Monaco

Bowmen, Class & War – Shorty Monster

Medieval Cooking, or, What’s in that Pie? – Steve Sigety

Recipe: Gruel, a la mode of My Mother – myself

Pestilence & Putrescence – Jeremy Whalen

Leeches, Clysters, and a Hole in the Head: Old School Medicine for Grimmer Games – Mike Monaco

On Food Surplus: Cities & Armies – myself

The Night Watch – Mike Monaco

I know it seems that Mike Monaco wrote most of it. Mike is, in fact, the author of almost half of the page count.

Burgs & Bailiffs should be done before the end of November and released as a free PDF, a softcover available at cost through POD.
